'Tis noontide hour, and smothcring ho, Are mid-day ' momenta now; No whore is found a breathing spot, , Nor breese to fan the brow; . . The sun unclouded from his height, : A trrlght of heat hath thrown, And glistening with their burning light The solar rays come down.

Through rustling loaves winds low and plaint Whisper sad sighs again. ' As if scorohed nature weak and faint Can breathe but now and then. From the National Era. . Gamaliel Bailey. II JOHH O. WHITTIER. The cypress shadows deepen. Out few days ago, we were called upon to lament the loss of a world-honored and beloved friend, Joseph Sturge, of Birmingham. And now the last arrival from Europe brings as the snd intelligence that cur gifted and dear friend and fellpw-laborer, with whose name our own has been so long associated in the National Era, is no longer among he living. "As clouds that rake the mountain summits, 1 As waves that know ho guiding hand, So swift has brother followed brother From sunshine to the sunless land." : The death of Dr. Bailey will be widely felt as a publio calamity. He was one of those men who mould and shape the image in which they live. To no one is the cause of Freedom and Progress, as embodied in the Republican party, more indebted than to him. Clear-sighted, warm-hearted, genous earnest without fanaticism, bold without temerity uncompromising, yet cortcous and charitablo gentleman always, never stooping to personal invective or controversy he has been emphatically, the man for his place and time. His views were broad and statojunanlike he could not wear the badge of a more pnrtizan. and be bold himself always ready to censure bis political friends, when, in his view, they were in the wrongand to commend his opponents whenever tbey took a step in the right direction. ' None but those who knew bim well, and understood his social and genial nature, eould estimate how much it cost him to maintain, under circumstances to which a weaker man would, have yielded to destiny, his peifect loyalty to truth. What most impressed ns in our intercourse with him, was the total absence of all cant, cavil, or subterfuge tfia honesty and Christian manliness of his cbsraeter. In that dark period when his press, in Cin cioaati, was twice destroyed by mobs, and in the perilous excitement which, at Washington. followed the -capture ol the Pearl with its cargo of fugitive slaves, bit courage never fj! tcred. Willi everything ha loved In life at stake, he disregarded alike the menaces of enemies and the persuasion of friends, and re fused to make any concession or apology, and strong in bis Conscious integrity, challenge') the closest scrotiny of his words end actions. The future historian of the anti-fclavory movement will find few nobler pictures for hiscan-vast than that of tbe slight figure of th Anti Slavery editor, alone and Unsupported, in the heart of. a siavebolding city, calmly confronting an armed and exciting multitude, declaring hi determination to live and die a free man, and to; speatb and print his sentiments freely sod fully, subject euly to the laws or his country f and closing With an appeal, at ones touching and manly, to the better natures of bis opponents, tilitil threats changed to cheers, and the really' generous but mis guided populace pressed toward him,' not to maltreat or intimidate, bo. Id shake the hand or ft brave and honsst man.-- , .' Personally, we feel assure P. &qUoj had no enemies.: His genial, hearty, healthful nature, his ingeniousness, his delicate regard for the amenities and courtesies of life, hia ungrudging admission of the right to differ, his broad catholic charity, endeared him to a Wide circle of friends, among the, warmest of whom were seme who total iy dissentod from hit views on political matters and the moral character of slavery. ; Many thoughts and memorios crowd upon us,' but our heart is too full for wojds. : A true and good man has laid down to bis long rest, after bravely: fighting the battle of life, leaving his mark upon the age, and a stain- loss and honored name to bis children. . The world wherein he labored is better for his sake He will be greatly missed in the coming struggle (Heaven grant it may be the last and triumphant onel) of Freedom with Slavery. But God is over all, and no man is indispensable. The broken ranks will be closed, and youngor men, who have learned the lessons of Liberty in the school of our lamented associate, will take up, and carry forward, to its glorious consummation, the grtat work to which be was devoted. , --. , Another Demonstration at Obcrlin. The Last of the Felons Welcomed . Home. ' Monday of last week was a proud, a grand day for the Oberlin rescuers. On that day, Mr. Bushnell, tho last of the rescuers confined in jail at Cleveland, was set at liberty, his term of imprisonment having expired. The Cleveland Leader speaks of the procession from the jail as follows: . ritOCESSIOX FROM JAIL. Both jail and yard were densely crowded with the friends of the prisoner.. Mr. John F. Warner was endowed by the sheriff with the powers of Marshal, and under his guidance the procession was formod. headed by a guard of colored men with a banner inscribed "Oberlin and Wellington Rescuers." Then followed the Chaplain (Tter. J. C. White,) followed by the Hecker Band in full uniform, discoursing lively and spirited national airs. Then came a long line of friends on foot, followed by Mr. Bufthnell in a car riage w th his baggage; he was accompanied by the ladies of Sheriff Wightman's family. Several other carriages followed, decorated with banners sod flags. A great crowd followed the procession to the depot, where there was gathered an immense crowd, who wel comed the Irro of the occasion with hoarty cheers. The Leader further says: ' OOItfd TO ODERMN, ASD OETTISO THEME. At 11:25 the train, with six crowded coach es, left the depot, the band playing national airs as they commenced the Journey. On reaching Oberlin, the guns of Artillery Com. pany A, Capt. W. R Simmons, who had gone to that place on an early train, spoke forth in booming notes of welcome and triumph. That Company with the Oberlin Hook and Ladder and Engine Companies, were drawn up to receive theClevelanders. Besides these, there were thousands of Lorain citizens ready to grasp their fellow citizen by the hand. Various banners and other devices, (some of them very expressive) W6re had by the crowd. . " At Oberlin the "Exercises' were of the most enthusiastic character. About five thousand persons were in attendance. The Leader says: , ' The specious galleries ol the church presented a beautiful spectacle, being almost entirely filled with the ladies of the College and neighborhood. These ladies held a prominent banner inscribed: THE LADIES.-6CO WEI.COMS TOTJ, Thrice Welcome, GREETING. The gathering of the Free, and the Marseilles Hymn was sung with great enthusiasm. Speeches were mad? by Hon. II. F. Spalding Mr. Bushnell, Hon. J. It. Giddingi, Ralph Plumb, John Langston, and Hon. D. K. Carter, formerly a Democratic Orator. Mr. Carter in his speech said: . Tho Dataociacy are in their last days, and they are doing the bast thing they can to speedily drop from existence, for in their eager hast they have got In their Presidential line a man without any posterity, and without any propped of any. Speaking of the Music, the Leader says: Of a'l the features of the day, there was nothing that was of more interest than the singing ty the vast and well-trained choir. It was, without exception, the ruot grand and glorious singing (he neares to our conception of a grand choral harmony, of anything ever heard. A lady remarked to ns on the 1mm ward passage she "didn't bt lieve we . would . hear better singing in the other world.' We do believe there is no choir like that one in the country. No words, no language can express the beauty and sublimity of the execution of the Marseilles nymn, or the "Gathering of the Prej.; , . . ' .

The Late Accident on the Southern Michigan B. R. Horrible Scenes. .W.J. Hawks, Esq., of Charloslown, Va., furnishes the Free Press with a thrilling account of the late horrible accident on the Southern Michigan railroad. Mr. Hawks, after stating that he was a passcngor, and that he was swept forty yards down the stream from where the train was precipitated into it, says:,,, , i9 ;.. .j : ; On reaching the shore I stumblod over a man turned and found him alive I aeked him bis name. He replied "Walworth." I could not raise him, and went to the cars for assistance, passed ton or twelve dead bodies on the beach. Arriving at the wreck I found some one had procured a light returning and found Walworth dead. Ho was a large, fine looking old gentleman. I afterwards assisted his son in his last moments. The first thing that arrested my attention on entoring the car that 1 had left was that I was standing on a pile of dead bodies. One man I thought alive and gazing into my face. I turned the lamp around, and the glazed eye of death told me that all was ovor. A lady had her arm clasped around hia neck, with a frightful wound in her head, hor feet caught and crushed in the wheels, of the car. At their feet lay a beautiful boy, with his head severed from his body as close as it could have been done by the guillotine. Some were just in the pangs of death.. Others, caught and crushed by the fallen timbers, begged me to kill them and put them out of their misery. There was a lady, going to meet her husband, with ber daughter six years old, and a baby at the bteast. The mother and little girl were killed. Tho mother had clasped the baby in such manner that it was unhurt.The ground was strewed with heads, arms, legs and dead bodies. I saw several with their backs Vroken and their lower limbs paralyzed, writhing in the sand. Soma of them would clutch me as I passed with a grasp from which it was almost impossible to free myself. Several beautiful hoys and girls were taken from the water and laid upon the bank. They were drownod, but looked beautiful in death. Othors were crushed between the wheels, with their faces aDd hands upturned in a supplicating manner. 1 passed a woman "who begged be to find her children." She was crying, "Oh! my dear family! oh, my six children. Both of her legs were crushed off bolow the knee. She lived ten or fifteen min utes. I afterwards assisted in taking two of her children from the wreck dead. Two more fine boys of hers were found one with his leg cut off; the other had lost an arm, and both were living when I loft. Tho Slckfoo Coao Aeoin Tho Hen. orable Daniel Sickles and Wife . have Besomed their Marital Be-lations. . - . : New YoitK, July 11. Th Hon. Daniel E. Sickles has sent letters to his most intimate fihnds, informing thorn that he has resumed his martial rolations with his wife. The let'ers were written yes. terday and 'o-day, and in consequence of the discovery that months ago he resumed the relation in the most intimate form. The story, for which we have excellent authority, is this: Mrs. Sickles, during and since tho trial, has resided at her outraged husband's country house, situated on Private avenue, leading from Bloomingdale road, between Eighty- fifth and Ninetiety streets, and overlooking the river. Thomas C. Field, the Public Ad miuistrator of the city, and intimate friond of Mr, 3icklcs, took a houBe about June 1st, which is three-quarters of a mile or so above Mr. Sickles' villa, and on a private avenue loading Irom Bloomingdale road. Mr. Field had not been long in his new quarter before his friend Daniel requested the privilege of occupying a room there, which request was granted. .. . . ; It was, however, soon observed that Mr. S, was in the habit of leaving the houso where he lodged, late at night and retunrning early is the morning. How often he' did this it is impossible to say. But at length suspicion was aroused, and fixed in the right direction-A few mornings ago Mr. Field happened to be with Mr. Emanuel B. Hart, whom you remember as-a fast and tearful friend of the homicide during the trial; whom should thoy tneot but Mr. Sickles on his return from his morning walk. They asked him where be had been, as friends do... He fired "p, and gave an answer importing that it was none of their business. ' But," said Mr. Field, "it is my business, if you have been having clandestine intercourses with a dishonored wife and living in my house the while, because it suits your material convenience " The np-sift of the matter was,' Mr. Sickles informed bis friends that that was to be done openly henceforth which had been hitherto done clandestinely. It is well understood that Mr, S. could never havo made out a caso justi'ying a divorce, on th ground of his wiles adultery. But this news will surprise some persons.' ' Keep the Blood Pure. Yost pf the diseases that are lound among men originate from humors in the blood, and even consumption itself, In a great many in stances, can be traced to the settling of some humor upon the lungs. With how much jny then should a remedy be baited that will for ever eradicate from the system the worst and Kennedy's .Medical Discovery cures every year thousands afflicted with Scrcfula, Ery sipelas, Rait Rheum, Rheumatism, ire. Arc, and yet there are some who, llirougu ignorance or want of fWit h, delay obtaining it. U'o would say to such "Be ye not faith eSD, but Ibeileve.'.' ... .Coniiiumifafto. . : For the Republican. Wo. 3. . Reply to Mr. Browster. Mb. Editos: . . , , Allow me to sayto your readers that Mr. Brewster takes an alarm that I did not intend to give. While my self-respect will pievent mo from responding to any other charges made by him against Methodist ministers un til he shall have either retracted or provon the truthfulness of the statements made in his sermon. I have not n any way jintimated that I would not continue to defend the Bishop and the members of the Arkansas Confer ence by examining his pretended proofs or receiving his retraction). I am unwilling to discuss with him any other question until this oie shall have been honorably disposed of. I may then enter with him into the discussion of other t subjects. The correctness of the statements made in his sermon about Bishop Janes and the mombers of the Arkansas con ference constitutes tho original and only ques tion in controversy all other questions are more side issues, some of them relevant, but most of them wholly . irrelevant to the main question. Let it bo remembered that he made the attaclc, while I write simply in defense of injured innocenca. Why is it that he so utterly f.tils to state correctly the points in controversy? He says in his response, "I have charged Bishop Janos with being southorn in his feelings." Was this all he charged him with? not exactly. Again he says, "I had charged the (members ol the) Arkansas Con ference with being oither slaveholders or the defenders of slavcholding." Was this all he said about thorn? No indeed. He represented both the Bishop and the members of the conference as being so meanly cringing and sycophantic that slaveholders did right in mobbing and driving them out of Texas. Why this attempt to shuffle out of sight the main points in dispute? Why not stand up like a man, and meet the charges as broad as be made them? 1. Is Bishop Janes a southern man in his feelings? 2. Is he a cringijg sj'cophant? 3. Aro the members of the Arkansas Conference all of them either slave holders or the defenders of slaveholding? and 4. Are the members of the conference, in common with Bishop Janes, cringing .syco phants? Mr. B. affirm, I deny. Itefjre proceeding to the examination of his pretended proof permit me to indulge the hope that our controversy may result in great good, as Mr. B. is evidently much improved in his piety, nis regrets that I hftve made use of certain hard words such as "fahe- hood," etc., appear to be very sincere. ' He is Quite alarmed lest I should injuro myself or the church of my choice by Che use of such Words. Whatapity it is that this new stock of piety did not arrive before he published his sermon. It was then quite courteous and christian Wit to denounce the Bishop and members of the conference as cringing syco phants, ets., and to pour out epithets without stint or measure upon his opponents. But as soon as our logical hand began to press just a little flpon the organ of contcientiousness he was horrified at tb.3 sight of these hard words and at the thought of my adopting a style so inelegant as to. call things by their right names. Without admitting that he has ever usod one hard word, he really asks your par don, Mr Editor, if in the heart of debate, under severe provocation from ine, he has used one such word. Is not this becoming righteous over much? Wero bo to bring forth fruits meet for repentance, by letting the oppressed go free by withdrawing the slander ous charges made in his sermonour confi dence in the genuineness of his new stock would be increased. His evasion of the real points la dispute can hardly bo set down as fruits of the spirit. There is some difference betweon skinning and being skinned. If he were at all posted in the history and polity of the M. E. Church he would be aware that the deposing of Bishop Andrews was not the cause but merely the occasion of the division of the M. K Church into two distinct Churches. With the conferences within tho jitt states it bad long been a matter of principle not to tol crate as a traveling preacher whether Bish ops or not any ono who is a slaveholder. Nor has the M E. Church ever receded from this high ground. Many in the ui. E. Church myself in the number earnestly dosire.and confidently expect, that the same rule will soon apply to local ministers, and private members. Mr. B. asks with flourish whelh Bishop Morris or the editors of our church papers bave ever deniod the statements made by Dr. McFerrin, and infers that the reason why they bave not is that the things are true. 1 answer these and many other statements ol Ihe kind are lelt unnoticed that they may sharo their merited condemnation from an in. telligent public. Were the Biabops and edit ors to undertake to contradict item by item all the statements made by tbe traducers of the M. E Church they would have a busy time ot it in doing little business.' A strange man is this Mr. B. With my review before him containing vatious pertinent quotations Irom the pen of Bishop Janes on the slavery question, he reiterates the old charge that be has never said or written anything on the sub joct - . "Of various scraps and fragments built, . Dorrowed alike from fools and wiu; Ilia mind sevins liko a pateh-work quilt, , Made bp of new, old inotley bit) Where if ibe eumjiativ (ailed In their shares, And each alike their quota gut, And gowns were all refanded theirs, '1 Tho qnllt wnnld lo.k hot ih, Ood wo Poor man how cl oonld it bo With nolh.ns ail at random caught, ' ' A Sort of muntol fricassee, " MaJe op of legs and wiu of thought." . ; I was not ignotant of what was sold In the report of the committee consisting of Dr. Dur-bin and others, and still affirm that there Is not en American' Conference in tho M. .15. Church that asks her applicants the question "Are you an abolitionist" ' Mr. B. willnot affirm that there is, as be well knows there Is not. ."''.' Mr. B. says some M. E. Minister has written him saying that tho preachers in the Arkansas Conference "aro anti slavery men Just s a rum-soller or a rum-drinker is a temperance man." Mr. Atwater testifies that while traveling some six months in the south in search of abolitionists he could not find thera. How strange. ' The gordeon knot In reference to those statements and others of the same kind is easily cut It consists simply in the sense in which the terms aMitionist and and'-slavery at) used. Here ultra pro-slavery ism and ulra abolitionists again meet and harmonize. The meaning attached to the torms by both those tiltraisms is the same. With them an abolitionism is one who isev'r ready to act as an agent for an under-ground railroad-one who is ever ready to persuade the slave to rnn away from his master. If the mem-Iters of the Arkansas Conference were asked, are you abolitionists in this sense? they would doubtless say toe are not. If these terms were used as ' they often are, to imply one who has an eternal hatred to slavery one who wisely and scripturally epposes it, one who seeks in a lawful tony its extirpation, and the members of the conference weru askod, are you abolitionists in this sense? thoy would answer, we are now and forever. If Mr. Atwater had sought anti-slavery men and not agents of under-ground railroads he would easily havo found them. The members of the Arkansas Conference speak as truthfully when they say that we have an eternal hatred to slavery and ever seek in a lawful way its extirpation, as they do when they say we aro not here (in the South) as agents of underground railroads or to persuade slaves to run away from their masters. Ha'f the controversies on this subject, both north and south, consist in mere crimination and re criminationwords without meaning, lor the want of this ever necessary distinction. Would not the M. E. Church , accomplish a great work if she could obtain the services of Mr. B. as rfimofMfrafor that M. E, ministers are not abolitionists but genuine , lovers of slavery themselvJS slave-holders, etc. The south would cease to mob them and peace would be secured. I have some doubts how ever, whether his services. could be obtained; as in all probability he would be like a certain soldier who on the apprcanii o a battle fled to a distant hill, and then loaded and fired in quick succession.

WHITTIER. The cypress shadows deepen. Out few days ago, we were called upon to lament the loss of a world-honored and beloved friend, Joseph Sturge, of Birmingham. And now the last arrival from Europe brings as the snd intelligence that cur gifted and dear friend and fellpw-laborer, with whose name our own has been so long associated in the National Era, is no longer among he living. "As clouds that rake the mountain summits, 1 As waves that know ho guiding hand, So swift has brother followed brother From sunshine to the sunless land." : The death of Dr. Bailey will be widely felt as a publio calamity. He was one of those men who mould and shape the image in which they live. To no one is the cause of Freedom and Progress, as embodied in the Republican party, more indebted than to him. Clear-sighted, warm-hearted, genous earnest without fanaticism, bold without temerity uncompromising, yet cortcous and charitablo gentleman always, never stooping to personal invective or controversy he has been emphatically, the man for his place and time. His views were broad and statojunanlike he could not wear the badge of a more pnrtizan. and be bold himself always ready to censure bis political friends, when, in his view, they were in the wrongand to commend his opponents whenever tbey took a step in the right direction. ' None but those who knew bim well, and understood his social and genial nature, eould estimate how much it cost him to maintain, under circumstances to which a weaker man would, have yielded to destiny, his peifect loyalty to truth. What most impressed ns in our intercourse with him, was the total absence of all cant, cavil, or subterfuge tfia honesty and Christian manliness of his cbsraeter. In that dark period when his press, in Cin cioaati, was twice destroyed by mobs, and in the perilous excitement which, at Washington. followed the -capture ol the Pearl with its cargo of fugitive slaves, bit courage never fj! tcred. Willi everything ha loved In life at stake, he disregarded alike the menaces of enemies and the persuasion of friends, and re fused to make any concession or apology, and strong in bis Conscious integrity, challenge') the closest scrotiny of his words end actions. The future historian of the anti-fclavory movement will find few nobler pictures for hiscan-vast than that of tbe slight figure of th Anti Slavery editor, alone and Unsupported, in the heart of. a siavebolding city, calmly confronting an armed and exciting multitude, declaring hi determination to live and die a free man, and to; speatb and print his sentiments freely sod fully, subject euly to the laws or his country f and closing With an appeal, at ones touching and manly, to the better natures of bis opponents, tilitil threats changed to cheers, and the really' generous but mis guided populace pressed toward him,' not to maltreat or intimidate, bo. Id shake the hand or ft brave and honsst man.-- , .' Personally, we feel assure P. &qUoj had no enemies.: His genial, hearty, healthful nature, his ingeniousness, his delicate regard for the amenities and courtesies of life, hia ungrudging admission of the right to differ, his broad catholic charity, endeared him to a Wide circle of friends, among the, warmest of whom were seme who total iy dissentod from hit views on political matters and the moral character of slavery. ; Many thoughts and memorios crowd upon us,' but our heart is too full for wojds. : A true and good man has laid down to bis long rest, after bravely: fighting the battle of life, leaving his mark upon the age, and a stain- loss and honored name to bis children. . The world wherein he labored is better for his sake He will be greatly missed in the coming struggle (Heaven grant it may be the last and triumphant onel) of Freedom with Slavery. But God is over all, and no man is indispensable. The broken ranks will be closed, and youngor men, who have learned the lessons of Liberty in the school of our lamented associate, will take up, and carry forward, to its glorious consummation, the grtat work to which be was devoted. , --. , Another Demonstration at Obcrlin. The Last of the Felons Welcomed . Home. ' Monday of last week was a proud, a grand day for the Oberlin rescuers. On that day, Mr. Bushnell, tho last of the rescuers confined in jail at Cleveland, was set at liberty, his term of imprisonment having expired. The Cleveland Leader speaks of the procession from the jail as follows: . ritOCESSIOX FROM JAIL. Both jail and yard were densely crowded with the friends of the prisoner.. Mr. John F. Warner was endowed by the sheriff with the powers of Marshal, and under his guidance the procession was formod. headed by a guard of colored men with a banner inscribed "Oberlin and Wellington Rescuers." Then followed the Chaplain (Tter. J. C. White,) followed by the Hecker Band in full uniform, discoursing lively and spirited national airs. Then came a long line of friends on foot, followed by Mr. Bufthnell in a car riage w th his baggage; he was accompanied by the ladies of Sheriff Wightman's family. Several other carriages followed, decorated with banners sod flags. A great crowd followed the procession to the depot, where there was gathered an immense crowd, who wel comed the Irro of the occasion with hoarty cheers. The Leader further says: ' OOItfd TO ODERMN, ASD OETTISO THEME. At 11:25 the train, with six crowded coach es, left the depot, the band playing national airs as they commenced the Journey. On reaching Oberlin, the guns of Artillery Com. pany A, Capt. W. R Simmons, who had gone to that place on an early train, spoke forth in booming notes of welcome and triumph. That Company with the Oberlin Hook and Ladder and Engine Companies, were drawn up to receive theClevelanders. Besides these, there were thousands of Lorain citizens ready to grasp their fellow citizen by the hand. Various banners and other devices, (some of them very expressive) W6re had by the crowd. . " At Oberlin the "Exercises' were of the most enthusiastic character. About five thousand persons were in attendance. The Leader says: , ' The specious galleries ol the church presented a beautiful spectacle, being almost entirely filled with the ladies of the College and neighborhood. These ladies held a prominent banner inscribed: THE LADIES.-6CO WEI.COMS TOTJ, Thrice Welcome, GREETING. The gathering of the Free, and the Marseilles Hymn was sung with great enthusiasm. Speeches were mad? by Hon. II. F. Spalding Mr. Bushnell, Hon. J. It. Giddingi, Ralph Plumb, John Langston, and Hon. D. K. Carter, formerly a Democratic Orator. Mr. Carter in his speech said: . Tho Dataociacy are in their last days, and they are doing the bast thing they can to speedily drop from existence, for in their eager hast they have got In their Presidential line a man without any posterity, and without any propped of any. Speaking of the Music, the Leader says: Of a'l the features of the day, there was nothing that was of more interest than the singing ty the vast and well-trained choir. It was, without exception, the ruot grand and glorious singing (he neares to our conception of a grand choral harmony, of anything ever heard. A lady remarked to ns on the 1mm ward passage she "didn't bt lieve we . would . hear better singing in the other world.' We do believe there is no choir like that one in the country.

The Late Accident on the Southern Michigan B. R. Horrible Scenes. .W.J. Hawks, Esq., of Charloslown, Va., furnishes the Free Press with a thrilling account of the late horrible accident on the Southern Michigan railroad. Mr. Hawks, after stating that he was a passcngor, and that he was swept forty yards down the stream from where the train was precipitated into it, says:,,, , i9 ;.. .j : ; On reaching the shore I stumblod over a man turned and found him alive I aeked him bis name. He replied "Walworth." I could not raise him, and went to the cars for assistance, passed ton or twelve dead bodies on the beach. Arriving at the wreck I found some one had procured a light returning and found Walworth dead. Ho was a large, fine looking old gentleman. I afterwards assisted his son in his last moments. The first thing that arrested my attention on entoring the car that 1 had left was that I was standing on a pile of dead bodies. One man I thought alive and gazing into my face. I turned the lamp around, and the glazed eye of death told me that all was ovor. A lady had her arm clasped around hia neck, with a frightful wound in her head, hor feet caught and crushed in the wheels, of the car. At their feet lay a beautiful boy, with his head severed from his body as close as it could have been done by the guillotine. Some were just in the pangs of death.. Others, caught and crushed by the fallen timbers, begged me to kill them and put them out of their misery. There was a lady, going to meet her husband, with ber daughter six years old, and a baby at the bteast. The mother and little girl were killed. Tho mother had clasped the baby in such manner that it was unhurt.The ground was strewed with heads, arms, legs and dead bodies. I saw several with their backs Vroken and their lower limbs paralyzed, writhing in the sand. Soma of them would clutch me as I passed with a grasp from which it was almost impossible to free myself. Several beautiful hoys and girls were taken from the water and laid upon the bank. They were drownod, but looked beautiful in death. Othors were crushed between the wheels, with their faces aDd hands upturned in a supplicating manner. 1 passed a woman "who begged be to find her children." She was crying, "Oh! my dear family! oh, my six children. Both of her legs were crushed off bolow the knee. She lived ten or fifteen min utes. I afterwards assisted in taking two of her children from the wreck dead. Two more fine boys of hers were found one with his leg cut off; the other had lost an arm, and both were living when I loft. Tho Slckfoo Coao Aeoin Tho Hen. orable Daniel Sickles and Wife . have Besomed their Marital Be-lations. . - . : New YoitK, July 11. Th Hon. Daniel E. Sickles has sent letters to his most intimate fihnds, informing thorn that he has resumed his martial rolations with his wife. The let'ers were written yes. terday and 'o-day, and in consequence of the discovery that months ago he resumed the relation in the most intimate form. The story, for which we have excellent authority, is this: Mrs. Sickles, during and since tho trial, has resided at her outraged husband's country house, situated on Private avenue, leading from Bloomingdale road, between Eighty- fifth and Ninetiety streets, and overlooking the river. Thomas C. Field, the Public Ad miuistrator of the city, and intimate friond of Mr, 3icklcs, took a houBe about June 1st, which is three-quarters of a mile or so above Mr. Sickles' villa, and on a private avenue loading Irom Bloomingdale road. Mr. Field had not been long in his new quarter before his friend Daniel requested the privilege of occupying a room there, which request was granted. .. . . ; It was, however, soon observed that Mr. S, was in the habit of leaving the houso where he lodged, late at night and retunrning early is the morning. How often he' did this it is impossible to say. But at length suspicion was aroused, and fixed in the right direction-A few mornings ago Mr. Field happened to be with Mr. Emanuel B. Hart, whom you remember as-a fast and tearful friend of the homicide during the trial; whom should thoy tneot but Mr. Sickles on his return from his morning walk. They asked him where be had been, as friends do... He fired "p, and gave an answer importing that it was none of their business.

Wo. 3. . Reply to Mr. Browster. Mb. Editos: . . , , Allow me to sayto your readers that Mr. Brewster takes an alarm that I did not intend to give. While my self-respect will pievent mo from responding to any other charges made by him against Methodist ministers un til he shall have either retracted or provon the truthfulness of the statements made in his sermon. I have not n any way jintimated that I would not continue to defend the Bishop and the members of the Arkansas Confer ence by examining his pretended proofs or receiving his retraction). I am unwilling to discuss with him any other question until this oie shall have been honorably disposed of. I may then enter with him into the discussion of other t subjects. The correctness of the statements made in his sermon about Bishop Janes and the mombers of the Arkansas con ference constitutes tho original and only ques tion in controversy all other questions are more side issues, some of them relevant, but most of them wholly . irrelevant to the main question. Let it bo remembered that he made the attaclc, while I write simply in defense of injured innocenca. Why is it that he so utterly f.tils to state correctly the points in controversy? He says in his response, "I have charged Bishop Janos with being southorn in his feelings." Was this all he charged him with? not exactly. Again he says, "I had charged the (members ol the) Arkansas Con ference with being oither slaveholders or the defenders of slavcholding." Was this all he said about thorn? No indeed. He represented both the Bishop and the members of the conference as being so meanly cringing and sycophantic that slaveholders did right in mobbing and driving them out of Texas. Why this attempt to shuffle out of sight the main points in dispute? Why not stand up like a man, and meet the charges as broad as be made them? 1. Is Bishop Janes a southern man in his feelings? 2. Is he a cringijg sj'cophant? 3. Aro the members of the Arkansas Conference all of them either slave holders or the defenders of slaveholding? and 4. Are the members of the conference, in common with Bishop Janes, cringing .syco phants? Mr. B. affirm, I deny. Itefjre proceeding to the examination of his pretended proof permit me to indulge the hope that our controversy may result in great good, as Mr. B. is evidently much improved in his piety, nis regrets that I hftve made use of certain hard words such as "fahe- hood," etc., appear to be very sincere. ' He is Quite alarmed lest I should injuro myself or the church of my choice by Che use of such Words. Whatapity it is that this new stock of piety did not arrive before he published his sermon. It was then quite courteous and christian Wit to denounce the Bishop and members of the conference as cringing syco phants, ets., and to pour out epithets without stint or measure upon his opponents. But as soon as our logical hand began to press just a little flpon the organ of contcientiousness he was horrified at tb.3 sight of these hard words and at the thought of my adopting a style so inelegant as to. call things by their right names. Without admitting that he has ever usod one hard word, he really asks your par don, Mr Editor, if in the heart of debate, under severe provocation from ine, he has used one such word. Is not this becoming righteous over much? Wero bo to bring forth fruits meet for repentance, by letting the oppressed go free by withdrawing the slander ous charges made in his sermonour confi dence in the genuineness of his new stock would be increased. His evasion of the real points la dispute can hardly bo set down as fruits of the spirit. There is some difference betweon skinning and being skinned. If he were at all posted in the history and polity of the M. E. Church he would be aware that the deposing of Bishop Andrews was not the cause but merely the occasion of the division of the M. K Church into two distinct Churches. With the conferences within tho jitt states it bad long been a matter of principle not to tol crate as a traveling preacher whether Bish ops or not any ono who is a slaveholder. Nor has the M E. Church ever receded from this high ground. Many in the ui. E. Church myself in the number earnestly dosire.and confidently expect, that the same rule will soon apply to local ministers, and private members. Mr. B. asks with flourish whelh Bishop Morris or the editors of our church papers bave ever deniod the statements made by Dr. McFerrin, and infers that the reason why they bave not is that the things are true. 1 answer these and many other statements ol Ihe kind are lelt unnoticed that they may sharo their merited condemnation from an in. telligent public. Were the Biabops and edit ors to undertake to contradict item by item all the statements made by tbe traducers of the M. E Church they would have a busy time ot it in doing little business.' A strange man is this Mr. B. With my review before him containing vatious pertinent quotations Irom the pen of Bishop Janes on the slavery question, he reiterates the old charge that be has never said or written anything on the sub joct - . "Of various scraps and fragments built, . Dorrowed alike from fools and wiu; Ilia mind sevins liko a pateh-work quilt, , Made bp of new, old inotley bit) Where if ibe eumjiativ (ailed In their shares, And each alike their quota gut, And gowns were all refanded theirs, '1 Tho qnllt wnnld lo.k hot ih, Ood wo Poor man how cl oonld it bo With nolh.ns ail at random caught, ' ' A Sort of muntol fricassee, " MaJe op of legs and wiu of thought." . ; I was not ignotant of what was sold In the report of the committee consisting of Dr. Dur-bin and others, and still affirm that there Is not en American' Conference in tho M. .15. Church that asks her applicants the question "Are you an abolitionist" ' Mr. B. willnot affirm that there is, as be well knows there Is not. ."''.' Mr. B. says some M. E. Minister has written him saying that tho preachers in the Arkansas Conference "aro anti slavery men Just s a rum-soller or a rum-drinker is a temperance man." Mr. Atwater testifies that while traveling some six months in the south in search of abolitionists he could not find thera. How strange. ' The gordeon knot In reference to those statements and others of the same kind is easily cut It consists simply in the sense in which the terms aMitionist and and'-slavery at) used. Here ultra pro-slavery ism and ulra abolitionists again meet and harmonize. The meaning attached to the torms by both those tiltraisms is the same. With them an abolitionism is one who isev'r ready to act as an agent for an under-ground railroad-one who is ever ready to persuade the slave to rnn away from his master. If the mem-Iters of the Arkansas Conference were asked, are you abolitionists in this sense? they would doubtless say toe are not. If these terms were used as ' they often are, to imply one who has an eternal hatred to slavery one who wisely and scripturally epposes it, one who seeks in a lawful tony its extirpation, and the members of the conference weru askod, are you abolitionists in this sense? thoy would answer, we are now and forever. If Mr. Atwater had sought anti-slavery men and not agents of under-ground railroads he would easily havo found them. The members of the Arkansas Conference speak as truthfully when they say that we have an eternal hatred to slavery and ever seek in a lawful way its extirpation, as they do when they say we aro not here (in the South) as agents of underground railroads or to persuade slaves to run away from their masters. Ha'f the controversies on this subject, both north and south, consist in mere crimination and re criminationwords without meaning, lor the want of this ever necessary distinction. Would not the M. E. Church , accomplish a great work if she could obtain the services of Mr. B. as rfimofMfrafor that M. E, ministers are not abolitionists but genuine , lovers of slavery themselvJS slave-holders, etc. The south would cease to mob them and peace would be secured. I have some doubts how ever, whether his services. could be obtained; as in all probability he would be like a certain soldier who on the apprcanii o a battle fled to a distant hill, and then loaded and fired in quick succession. An officer rode np to him ind commanded him to find his place in the ranks saying your bullets cannot reach the enemy irom this point. The soldier replied, "that is not all their bullets cannot roach me." It is doubtless, true that Mr. B. feels much safer standing upnn his Cleveland hill and fir ine not so much at slave-holders ns at those who have the courage te beard tho lion Shveryin his den, than ha would standing so near the slavery hat that their bullets could reach him. Would not Mr.B.do well to cease to inborn witnesses to prove his statements, and acknowledge franJcly what he has imiirediyand reluctantly admitted, that is, that he does not know, and cannot prove, hutsimply infers tho correctness of the things stated in his sermon.Your readers know that the facts are against him, and every attempt of the kind can but increase his crime, and give publicity to his defeat.
